“That Speedruns Games Under Ridiculous Conditions Guy”
Saturday 6 February 2010
Last night I made my first attempt at speedrunning Air Fortress while recording to my DVD recorder. This attempt ended about 25 minutes in because I was too risky in the space-shooting segments. It’s really amazing that it even lasted that long, however.
Ladies and Gentlemen, I give you a screenshot of, effectively, what I’m seeing while running while recording. You’ll note the giant RECORDING symbol which obscures my life total. In this particular screenshot, it’s actually not a big deal (You die in one hit in the space-shooting segments), but it’s a bit annoying to not know how much life I have at any given time in the fortresses themselves.
Still, I’ll get through it like I do everything else.
Haha, wooops! Maybe there’s an option to hide that recoding icon? Either way, Air Fortress, wow. Tough nut to crack, good luck. You’re a glutton for punishment, aren’t you?
I’m something of a masochist when it comes to my speedrunning selection, yes. I figure since I’m never going to have a run on the most popular games, I may as well make my niche where I can.
Anyway, had a run where I only Game Overed once today, which was nice, although not good enough for SDA.
